RFQ D/B - Electric Vehicle Charging Stations Project Phase III

The Project will entail designing, obtaining certain permits (to be specified in the RFP), and constructing the infrastructure needed to support electrical vehicle charging stations; and purchasing, installing, and commissioning approximately 166 dual charging EV units across five Department field divisions within the State of California. The Project includes, but is not limited to, the following features: - Extending power supply from existing buildings to existing and new parking spaces - Upgrading existing electrical service (required at certain sites) to support additional load from EV charging - Connection to existing electric service (generally within existing buildings at the sites) - Pavement removal and trenching - Installation of buried conduit, power cable, and communications cable from existing electric service, terminating in a receptacle or junction box located near the EV charging station locations - Electrical service to support a mix of level 2 and level 3 charging stations - Installation of charging station foundation pads or poles - Repair/replacement of existing paving - General civil design including site development, development of parking spaces, trenching, grading, storm drainage, and paving, curb, and gutter design - ADA compatibility (may be required at certain sites) - Outdoor area lighting and lighting controls - Installation of bollards, striping, signage for designated EV parking stalls, and other features as required by location conditions Estimated Cost Range $35,000,000 - $40,000,000 The Department has established a secure server (Cosmos) for the distribution of RFQ and RFP documents and Addenda and, as applicable, other background documents for the Project. Documents may also be posted, at the Departments discretion The Department may add, delete, or amend documents on Cosmos at any time. Each Submitter is solely responsible to ensure that it has the appropriate software which allows the Submitter to view and download the materials from Cosmos. Access to Cosmos will enable the Submitter, and subsequent short-listed Submitters, to receive notifications of any updates or new documents uploaded to Cosmos; however, each Submitter is solely responsible for checking Cosmos frequently for the addition, deletion, or amendment of the materials. Access to Cosmos is obtained by emailing the Departments Designated Contact (RFQ Section 4.1.2): DWR-CDP@water.ca.gov Deadline for receipt of Submitters written questions and requests for clarifications :July 17, 2023 Deadline for Departments response to the Submitter request for clarifications to RFQ :July 28, 2023 The Department will not hold a pre-SOQ site visit for the Project. A site visit will be offered to short-listed Submitters during the proposal phase.
